Former senators
We respectfully urge you to maintain the scientific drain tile setback rule that’s been successful for more than 60 years.
Let’s be clear: Putin is a war criminal, and his war machine must be stopped.
We’re not giving up. I mean, we need to fund [the] military, I believe. We need to fund election integrity measures. So, I can’t predict the future.
It must not be dictated by billionaires seeking to maximize their power and their profit.
Obviously, I'm disappointed in that decision, which turned abortion issues back to the states. It has not had an impact on the state of Maine.
At a time when energy prices are skyrocketing, the Administration is hell-bent on political retribution instead of working to bring down costs for millions of Americans.
I think it’s a good response but it is inconsistent with… the testimony you gave before the House of Representatives. Do you think forced arbitration of sexual assault and sexual harassment cases is right or wrong?
Now it is attempting to obscure the deaths and injuries of our service members—and that is not only hypocritical, but unconscionable.
We must take steps to ensure political charades never get in the way of the benefits our military and their families deserve.
Trump’s illegal Iran war has been a complete blunder – and we cannot let this Administration harm military families in an attempt to hide from their mistakes.
The essential gaslight is that the war is about to end. Don’t worry. Yet it appears that there is no end.
I will also note that Mr. Blanche is criticized for things over which he has no control, he points out that he has been criticized for presidential pardons given to Jan. 6 rioters, some of whom assaulted police officers.
I’ve learned that some of the cases that have been publicly reported to be under investigation by the Department of Justice have been dismissed or no longer being pursued.
That history does not matter one bit.
This proposed rule would fundamentally alter Head Start and break the promise that America has made good on for decades to offer the children born furthest from opportunity with the best our country has to offer in early childhood…
Trump is trying to destroy Head Start—and he's hoping you won't notice.
Instead of expanding access to early childhood education, he is moving to dismantle Head Start and the standards that keep its 700,000 kids safe. How cruel.
In a swing state, it is the moderate over the progressive that wins.
Max Miller needs serious psychological help,” Moreno wrote. “He is a danger to my daughter, and I hold my breath every minute he has custody of my granddaughter.
If not adopted, Congress should reject this strategic blunder of a bill that will do nothing to bring peace to Ukraine, but rather raise prices for American consumers, further weaken the dollar, destroy U.S. relations around the globe, and…
Imposing a 100 percent tariff on all goods imported from countries like China and India is the economic equivalent of shooting ourselves in the foot.
Do not let sympathy for Ukraine blind you to the reality of tariffs. Tariffs are taxes on imports that are paid by Americans.
The bill before us grants the Executive Branch the power to raise nearly $500 billion dollars in revenue. I hope I am not the only Republican left in Congress who is horrified by a bill that proposes to raise taxes by half a trillion…
